This paper summarises results from a large UK project focused on a novel olefin synthesis process specifically tailored for operating with waste feedstock and medium scale plants (~100,000 tons/year), as in the case of syngas obtained from the gasification of waste. A comprehensive Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) analysis unveils the environmental sustainability but also the bottlenecks of the process, comparing with conventional olefin synthesis processes, analysing different impact categories. Overall, this work presents a promising pathway for sustainable olefin production from waste biomass, offering substantial environmental advantages over fossil-based technologies.

摘要

This paper summarises results from a large UK project focused on a novel olefin synthesis process specifically tailored for operating with waste feedstock and medium scale plants (~100,000 tons/year), as in the case of syngas obtained from the gasification of waste. A comprehensive Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) analysis unveils the environmental sustainability but also the bottlenecks of the process, comparing with conventional olefin synthesis processes, analysing different impact categories. Overall, this work presents a promising pathway for sustainable olefin production from waste biomass, offering substantial environmental advantages over fossil-based technologies.
